**FLEETING HEADPHONE WARNINGS**

AGAIN, after SEVEN seasons, we are finally getting answers in this series and each new answer or reveal is so surprising but works so perfectly to build on the character work we've had so far.

If you didn't have a dry eye after this Reiko-focused episode? I don't blame you one bit. This was SUCH a good episode!

*NOTE: The YouTube video has a 3-second delay with the timer - if you watch the PIP link reaction, the timer is correct! Apologies for that editing snafu!*

There is a Season 7 Ova actually it became available quite recently if it's not available on the regular streaming sites then ask one of the mods to get you the file I would love to see your reaction to it Edit: It came out with the physical release in Japan in April of this year after season 7 and a week ago someone confirmed it was not out officially yet on CR so I saw the episode myself and the fansubs are good so it's up to you if you want to wait for it to reach CR or get the file and react to it

Loved the reaction and discussion! This is one of my absolute favourite episodes – especially as a Reiko-centric one! 🥰 Knowing what we know now, starting with the “wish we had an OVA!” 😆 and then going straight into an episode with Tsuda (yes, Soranome was voiced by Tsuda, you got it right!) - this was such a beautiful gift of an episode! I loved meeting Soko, she was wonderful. 🥰 And seeing that she was the origin of Reiko’s kind of coping mechanism/pattern was truly bittersweet. Excellent discussion around Reiko’s tendency to distance herself first, pre-emptively protecting herself. And it all links so well back to Natsume’s earlier tendency to assume the worst – Soko worked really hard to get close to Reiko, but unfortunately, at the very first sign of (even accidental) distance, Reiko sprinted away. It is so painful to watch because the pattern is so understandable, borne of trauma, but still somewhat unkind. Knowing Natsume managed to break himself out of that same pattern is so good. And Soranome made me cry, as well – the way he really wanted to bring those two together. There is an amazing dub line in this episode: “No amount of enthusiasm helped my voice reach her.” He really tried. 😭 Looking forward to next week! 💙

The yokai Soranome is voiced by Tsuda - it's on the wiki and on anilist.

Yes! I was guessing it's Tsuda - I don't check a lot on the wikis because I want to avoid spoilers. #lifeofablindreactor but thank you for the info! :D

Yes! I had recorded this before I saw that Episode 13 was on Crunchyroll; no worries, I will be watching it! Thank you for the comment and for letting me know! :D

Thank you so much for the comment and kind words! This episode feels so important to see before going on a long hiatus, that’s for sure! And yessssss, I am so happy that we get an OVA after Episode 12 - huzzah! AND getting Tsuda in this? Ugh, my heart is full indeed. Soko was a wonderful character, especially with how important she is to this entire story! It really was sad to watch things go down the way it did, but I am glad Natsume does not seem to be headed in the same direction as his grandmother, for better and worse. And yes, Soranome was such a sweetheart of a yokai for trying to bridge their friendship. UGH, I really need to watch the dub after all this hahaha! Thank you and yes, I’m going to savor these weeks leading up to us being caught up with Natsume.
